Current scheme of the Minsk Metro

Metro in Minsk is a popular and convenient mode of transport. Underground lines duplicate the main traffic flows on the surface, unloading the city during peak hours.

Modern and perspective scheme of the Minsk metro

In the subway of the Belarusian capital there are 25 stations. The Minsk Metro is two operating lines (Moscow and Avtozavodskaya). Soon there will be one more.

In 2014, the subway cars were decorated with a scheme of the Minsk Metro, on which the third line appeared, which had not yet been put into operation. At the same time in the cars began to voice the station names not only in Belarusian, but also in English. All innovations were timed to the World Hockey Championship, held in Minsk.

The scheme of the Minsk Metro will change more than once. The city authorities plan to build and run the fourth subway line in the future. The network of underground highways must connect the center of the city with large microdistricts. Well, the nearest plans are the launch of the first third-line stations in 2019.

Mode of operation of the Minsk metro

The stations open at 5:30 in the morning, the first train leaves at 5:33. The interval between the formulations varies from 1.5 to 9 minutes at different times of the day.

The doors to the entrance close at one o'clock in the morning. Three minutes after this, the last train leaves, which carries passengers who managed to get on the platform.

Payment of travel

Passage in the subway is paid by special tokens. Transition from one line of the Minsk underground to another free one.

One counter to the Minsk Metro costs 60 Belarusian cents (this is about 0.3 dollars or 18 Russian rubles). They are plastic, with a metal element inside. You can buy them at the box office at each station. There, on the occasion, it makes sense to stock up on coupons for land transport.

There is a system of electronic travel in Minsk transport, and instead of placers it is suggested to write down the necessary number of trips to a contactless smart card. Those who use the subway often and takes more than 10 trips at a time, a discount is waiting. It is also possible to pay for the trip by SMS.

If you need to withdraw cash, in the halls there is a scheme of the Minsk Metro, indicating which stations have ATMs.
